Invitation to Join

The 20 Year Association club now welcomes all staff, contract, casual, performers and retirees, regardless of the length of service.

On November 2, 1957, the 21st Anniversary of CBC, a group of employees (both retired and continuing) formed a club known as "the CBC Pioneers Club" with chapters in Ottawa and Montreal and Toronto. On May 1st, 1961 the concept and the name was changed to "the CBC Twenty Year Association". Originally you had to have 25 years of service to be a member, in 1961 this dropped to 20 years (hence the name change). A few years ago, the 20 year stipulation was waived by the CBC 20 Year Association Executive to reflect the reality of CBC staffing changes. The club now welcomes all staff, contract, casual, performers and retirees, regardless of the length of service.
